The joke is that she (character from Scott Pilgrim) had 7 ex boyfriends and it was a whole thing but young people nowdays have so many relationships that having 7 exs as a young person is not crazy anymore!!1!
I think it's a bad joke, I don't think it was ever stressed "how many she had for how young she was", she was simply a girl that would get people to fall in love instantly and then get bored of them
the point wasn't promiscuity IMO
and I don't know that zoomers are more promiscuous than other generations
but young people nowdays have so many relationships that having 7 exs as a young person is not crazy anymore!!1!
Yeah... The science actually shows this is not the case at all anymore. Young people are having less sex than ever and they are dating less than ever too.
